Some changes...
Yesterday I completely disassembled my system ...
I replaced in some places Paxmate with AcoustiPack ...
I removed the dust ...
I made holes in the bottom of the case, and I attached a set of wheels LianLi WB-01 ...
I put a pair of cold cathode Vantec NXP-301 ...
I rebuilt the WM

I've often wondered why there isn't just a lattice work of metal behind the mobo. It'd cover all of your mounting locations and add a lot of space for wire management or heat dissipation.

I'm sure it'd cost more to produce... but whatever.

Its a trade-off, two much material taken off the mobo tray and it won't be stiff enough to do its job of supporting the motherboard and components fixed to it, conversly take to little off and it could make the computer harder/more expensive to produce.

From what I rememeber from the my Chinese lecturer who was trying to teach me how how to model stresses in plate strutures (like cars and stuff), there is lots of complicated maths to modeling a plate with loads in 3 dimensions.

An example of a case maker taking a little two much material off the backside of the mobo tray are the Korean JNC 4JA series of cases from 2000-2003. JNC took a little two much off the backside and as a result, the cases cause the motherboards to warp slightly. This is wasn't an issue with older hardware, but the heavier heatsinks that started to aprear in 2004, brought the problem to light.

JNC don't support the 2JA, 3JA, 4JA and 5JA series cases (mainly as they are dicontinued).

I finally got a Noctua NH-D14. I took this instead Cooler Master Z600 I wonder why Noctua Nh-D14 is not yet reviewed on SPCR... It seams to be the best cooler on the market today... On all categories, high RPM, low RPM and FANLESS. Tommorrow I will probably instal it...

Really nice looking build. Just interested to know what temperatures you are getting on idle and load with passive cooling for cpu and GFX (it looks like your graphics card is passively cooled ... is it?). Also the rear fan is that intake or exhaust?
